That's possible.

I know, but if he were lying the state would at least try to introduce that instead of having 2 detectives testify that he was truthful.

Dramatic effect.

I'm saying that IN MY OPINION I see the state as completely blowing this case. That's the way it works sometimes. Guilty people are found not guilty and not guilty people are found guilty. It depends upon whether or not the state can convince a jury of guilt beyond a reasonable doubt WITHIN the rules of evidence, the rules of court procedure, and the laws applicable, that the crime was committed. And, IMO, it means the Defense did a good job of rebutting the state's evidence through cross examination. That's the way it is in EVERY case. If the jury acquits, it will mean to me that the State failed to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
Why?

Missed this afternoon's testimony so I am catching up now. Have to say, even the police as witnesses is not helping the prosecution at all! I'm still waiting for the prosecution to actually prove their case. Thus far, they haven't even come close, in my opinion.

Besides, a lie detector test isn't admissible evidence.

Again, the state doesn't care. They had the trial. Its over as far as they are concerned. The verdict doesn't matter. They had the trial.

I don't really see that, not that TM stating "you're going to die" means anything either. I mean, I've been in fights and I'm sure I've said something similar, but I never had any intention of killing anyone regardless what I may have said in the heat of the moment.

I am starting to believe this is the case. The state can say 'well we tried'.

I'm aware of that, but a lie detector test and 2 detectives all stating GZ was truthful is pretty damning evidence.
